Shown with the President is Mrs. Nancy Williams, Pact Ratified in Waterford Final Board Action Will Come Tonight . Teachers of the Waterford Township School District ratified a 1966-67 contract last night to assure that schools will open on tune Thursday. The contract with the Waterford Township Board of Education was approved by 75 per cent of the teachers attending a special meeting at the Community Activities, Inc., building. The board of education tentatively approved the contract last night and is slated to take final action tonight It will cost the board about $550,000 more than last year’s package of salaries and fringe benefits for the teachers, according to school officials. New salaries will range from a starting $5,800 to a maximum $9,000 for teachers with bachelor degrees and from $6,200 to $10,-000 for teachers with masters’ degrees. In ratifying the contract, teachers passed a resolution that ratification “does not mean that its (the contract’s) conditions are wholly acceptable. “Quality education can only take place where finances are adequately provided to reduce class size and where there is involvement of the staff in policy decisions that vitally affect their conditions of employment.’’ Cheers Clearly in Majority on 18-Speech Trip Swing Through State, Ohio Starts Johnson's Preelection Politicking WASHINGTON 1 President Johnson has begun his official preelection politicking with an 18-speech Midwestern tour that drew big crowds and enthusiastic cheers for his Viet Nam policy. There were a few jarring notes during yesterday’s swing through Michigan and Ohio. But from Johnson’s standpoint, the “yeahs” clearly were in the majority. One presidential speech, at a packed fairgrounds in racially tense Dayton, Ohio, was interrupted twice when some of his supporters scuffled with antiwar demonstrators. The shoving and pushing matches, about 50 yards in front of Johnson’s platform, did not in themselves interrupt the chief executive’s words. ★ ★ „ ★ Instead, he had to pause when many In the crowd cheered as antiwar banners were pulled down and ripped apart. PLIGHT OF YOUTH Ironically, all this happened as Johnson was discussing the plight of restive youth, asking, “Is the right to demonstrate all a society can offer the restless, surging spirit of a generation that asks where the action is?’’ The President later ad-libbed areferencetothe young demonstrators, saying it is those who wear the green beret of the Special Forces “who make it possible for you to dissent, who give you the liberty and the freedom that you so freely exercise.’’ Traveling for the first time this election season at the expense of the Democratic party, Johnson visited Detroit and Battle Creek, Mich, and Dayton and Lancaster,,Ohio. The crowds got bigger at every step and, if official estimates were 'halfway accurate, totaled more than 250,000 people.

THE PONTIAC PRESS, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1966 fa1 Boom Puts Churches to U.S. (EDITOR’S NOTE - This is the first of a five-part series by the Rev. David Poling, associate editor of the Christian Herald, who has been appointed a special writer and consultant on titllgttMt news for the Newspaper Enterprise At-I I w f By DAVID POLING Newspaper Enterprise Assn. NEW YORK — The churches of the land have struggled to keep time with many revolutions: the industrial and agrarian, the civil rights and campus crusades, the Pill and the New Morality. But of all the crosscurrents — including the God-is-Dead; School (topless theology?) of the. most powerful has not been fully understood or faced. Its impact on the religious, community is massive and it is contributing to what ®*y be die last years of the church as we have known it. Call it the recreation explosion, a leisure life for millions of our people. * ★ * And one group that is bracing itself against this latest event is the religious community:'For the church, synagogue and cathedral may experience a severe and dangerous testing of ; their leadership. To put bluntly — has Sunday become fun-day? Is every weekend a little vacation'with the formal requirements of the religious life tost in the spray of water-skiing, scuba diving and beachcombing? Has the Sabbath succumbed to the suntan and are we'seeing the last stand of Saturday and Sunday services that Once were the solid backbone of the American community? * ★ ★ Some ministers are eager to affirm that the fruits of our labor should be recreation, lengthy vacations and early retire ment. They point out that the production, sales and profits of economic system have been bountiful, the benefits wide; and precise understanding of Spread in a nation with no ruling class or caste system. All this has Mended together with the happy result that a man now works fewer hours, for higher pay and a longer life. Add to this a fastback car, a fast track at Hialeah, a fast flight to Europe and, man, you have a leisure-recreation explosion rocking Amercia and the greater part of the Western world. ★ At this point a jumbo-size threat to the churches emerges. For the Hebrew-Christian community has always had a clear work. HISTORIC CONCEPT From the teaching of the prophets, die life of Christ, the labors of St. Paul and the other disciples, the example and writings of Luther and Calvin, you have file historic concept of every man to his “calling'’ -? to his vocation in life blessed by God. In fact, the Christian life would propaMy have flickered out in the Dark Ages if the monks had not worked like miners under a landslide in the belief that work glorified and exalted the Creator. However, you will search long and late to find any discussion of leisure and recreation in theological literature. The nomadic life, the pioneer society, the agrarian economy had vary few invitations to use the ski tow at Big Bromley, or to “come on down” to the nin of Miami. NO GUIDELINES The Puritan background of much American theology had hardly provided any useful guidelines for the leisure and recreation explosion. As the pastors mid priests and rabbis wrestle with this new threat to the life of the religious community, they are also willing to join In the celebration at this point: The Hebrew-Christian community affirms the goodness of life that has come with the reduction of hard work, back-breaking labor, tong hours. Every new invention — be it dishwasher or lawn mower, power saw or sewing machine —■ has brought well-being to men and freedom from old taskmasters. NEW EQUIPMENT In the 1960s for the first time In world history millions, not a few, have tbe opportunity to serve their faith with the equip-of the affluent society: money, resources, energy, education and free time. The charch will have to find more relaxed, informal ways to meet and guide die people where they are. If this happens on a national basis, file recreation explosion may be a blessing instead of a bomb, stirring the churches to . ressions of fellowship and worship of Him who gives life every day. T But other questions persist in this world of technology as well as file temple. (NCXT: m Cupotf.)

INSPECTION OFFER Foreign Minister Tran Van Do offered air transportation to the zone, more than 400 miles north of Saigon, so commission officials could verify “the presence of armed elements of the North Vietnamese 324B Division and antiaircraft positions. He told a news conference his government sought the spot check to show allied forces were operating near the zone and bombing it only in self-defense. The zone was created by-the 1954 Geneva Conference, which brought temporary peace to Indochina.

Bandits Kidnap Three Catholic Priests in Congo KINSHASA, Leopoldville, the Congo (AP) — Three Roman Catholic priests have been kidnaped by bandits in the northeast Congo, the Catholic news agency Dia reported today.

Pierre Snoeck, a Belgian, and two Congolese. The agency said the priests were taken from their mission at Babonde; near Wamba, by bandits believed to be remnants of the Simba rebels. Since the military order was sued over the weekend, Saigon’s flourishing night life has slowed to a crawl. The usually thriving restaurants, bars and nightclubs have been nearly emptied. By keeping Americans out of sight in the cities before the vote, U.S. officials hope to counteract Communist propaganda that the United States is trying to influence the vote.

NEAR BIRTHDAY The attack, the second on Verwoerd since he became prime minister in 1958, came just two days before his 65th birthday. Several doctors who are members of Parliament rushed to the side of the man who became the symbol of South Africa’s racial segregation. The attack took place while the bells were ringing, summoning the House of Assembly for the start of the session. Soon after Verwoerd had taken his'seat on the front bench the assassin walked toward him. LOOKED UP Verwoerd looked up as if be expected the messenger was to speak to him. The as- . then plunged the knife into Verwoerd’s neck. VerWerd was stabbed at least three times. His assailant was armed with three knives, one of which looked like a dagger. Verwoerd slumped at his"'1" desk, his head down, his face white.

ANSWER: It is said that a lion will first strike his prey with the fifth or dew claw, which you can see in our picture, and then kill the animal by biting. Wiki members of the cat family (except for the cheetah) usually keep their claws withdrawn. In this way they can slink noiselessly up to animals they are attacking. Domestic cats may depend on their attractive personalities to get their human friends to feed them, but they win still Vavp the same equipment of teeth and claws that their wild relatives have. Claws in cats are hinged. When not in use, they lie inside the paw between two protecting pads of skin. The cat can then walk on die pads iif her feet without the daws touching. In the upper middle pictare we see how a tendon, palling on the base of the claw, it stick right oat of file foot. Cats take great care of their claws and like to clean and sharpen them by scratching rugs and furniture. A scratching post of soft wood is good for them to use instead of valuable rugs and chair legs. FOR YOU TO DO: Press very gently down on top of your cat’s foot and the daws will spring out. Don’t be rough or you’ll get scratched. Tax Collector Is $20 Shorter NAPA, Calif, rim When tax collector A. J.

SPEAR Q) “Please recommend a c 0 mj> any participating in oceanographic research which would be a good growth investment.” A.B. A) Oceanography, embracing many research areas, is currently represented in many of our leading corporations. For your consideration, I have selected two relatively small science companies .Which I have followed closely from the time when they traded over-the-counter at much lower prices. NoW they are properly seasoned Board listings. EG&G is an important factor in oceanographic instrumentation. A newly formed EG&G International subsidiary is expected to contribute substantially to sales of oceanographic equipment. Sanders Associates is well known for its manufacture of Auto Industry Gaining Steam DETROIT (AP)—The auto industry’s assembly lines will go into high gear today as the time draws near for public introduction of 1967 models. More than 180,000 of the new cars had been built through last weekend as the industry moved towards its goal of having 350,-000 built by month end. The drive was slowed down by the Labor Day holiday. ' * The Cadillac plant in Detroit and the Mustang-Cougar plant at Dearborn, last assembly units to begin their 1967 output, were due to roll on that work tomorrow. Car production for the year to date approached 5.6 million about 600,000 behind the pace of 1965, but heavy production schedules for September and October were expected to reduce that margin. In the truck field, the industry appeared headed for a new record as calendar year build passed 1,192,410 compared with 1,186,849 at this point a year ago in what was the industry’s record year to date. military systems for antisubmarine warfare. But for general underseas work it produces deep-water sensing buoys, precision sensors, sonar data processors and readout devices. Both of these stocks strongly resisted the late summer downturn in the market, making, new all-time hjghs in mid-August. ★ ★ ★ v Q) “My yearly income as a teacher is $8,500. Earnings growth is slow, although steady. We have family savings of $700 and $2,200 invested in Coburn Credit (ASE) ad Tally Corporation (OTC). What are your suggestions to enhance my financial situation?” L. L. A) Your question soundsfes if “enhancement” should come through stock investments but in good conscience I cannot go along with this assumption. Your savings reserve should first be eenhanced, although you may consider your teacher’s pension as part of your savings. However, a serious family ill-could quickly wipe out your present cash reserves. Furthermore, you make no mention of life insurance, and I believe that some kind of an insurance program takes precedence over stock purchases. Fqrtunately, you hold two issues earning consistently higher profits and their technical action has been reasonably good.. I see no immediate reason for selling either of them. But I advise against further stock purchase until, as head of a young family, you give the emergency factor added attention. (Copyright, 1966) Area Man Gets Fisher Body Post The appointment of Kenneth H. Middleton, of 1364 Puritan, Birmingham, as general director of industrial relations for Fisher Body Division of deneral Motors has been announced by Fisher Body General Manager Kennedy N. Scott. The appointment was effective ept. 1, 1966. He succeeds Ray-mon A. Boehne, who is on a leave of absence. But in doing this it made “educated projections.” At the time—1952—some schol-are and economists scolded the authors as being stargazers. Instead, the authors have been vindicated in maiiy respects and have been found, almost incredibly, overly conservative in otlfc er areas. The reason was simple. CHAIRMAN OF PROJECT “We just weren’t optimistic enough,” said William S. Paley, who took a leave of absence from his top job at Columbia Broadcasting to be chairman of the government project. “A lot of people thought we had gone overboard,” he said. “In almost every case they thought we had done so.” ★ ★ ★ Why wasn’t the so-called Paley commission optimistic enough, he was asked. Paley’s reply indicated • that ;he capacity of Americans to eproduce their kind seemed to be a fundamental miscalculation that undermined other projections. “The birthrate went higher than anything we had experienced," he said. ALREADY EXCEEDED The Paley report forecast 193 million population by 1975, although it cautioned that “population cannot be foreseen with great accuracy.” That figure has already been exceeded. “Worker productivity rose more than was foreseen,” he continued. “And the work force increased because of the growth of agricultural technology. This released farm workers for other productive work.” There were other factors — the development of outer space technologies and products, the swift postwar recovery of Japan and Europe, the introduction of new materials. What apparently cannot be accounted for in forecasts, even in this age of computers, is the apparent inherent ability of the nation to surprise. And forecasts, Paley reminds us, must be based on what information is currently available. ★ ★ ★ “If we were doing the report today we’d have to use the yardsticks available,” he said. The most profound seer can’t always see what is in the mind of the people who do all these tilings. It would take a psychologist. And he would have to be optimist too, if he thought he could tackle the job. Business Notes James F. Flanary of ,37 S.
